37X is a mythological figure, who was the king of Asuras, was an able ruler and under his leadership the asuras defeated the devas. He himself was not an asura but was born out of

the union of the lightning from Shiva’s third eye and the Ocean.

In one story, he accuses Shiva of hypocrisy, pointing out that Shiva claims to be an ascetic but keeps a wife, Parvati. X

proposes that Shiva hand over Parvati to him.. Upon hearing these insults Shiva becomes so angry that a fearsome

creature (Kīrttimukha) sprang from his brow and nearly killed Rahu, the messenger who had delivered the demand.

There is a city in India named after X.
